It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Seconds? Uh, no, thanks, I've already had enough

Sorry to say that I do not share your modicum of talent or sensitivity, and believe your post to be mostly verbose pomposity masquerading as insight and profundity.

That "maiden voyage special something" (new-car smell?) you ascribe to a select number (you do realize there are a few more composers who wrote symphonies) of composers' first symphonies is in fact a transference of your own sense of discovery and has nothing to do with the qualities of the works. Beethoven's First was hardly discovery of a new world, whereas his Third WAS an entirely new world. Brahms's First has "spring-like energy"? I admit it escapes me and probably every other listener entirely, and I invariably dismiss your contention out-of-hand, whatever that means.

Sincerely,
Just another chimp who wishes Rembrandt had painted more bananas
